First off, I’d like to mention that every single crafty person I know really adores their Cricut Explore AirTM 2 machine. And for some reason, I’ve been over here without one.
Although I had heard of the machine, I had never really used one before, so my knowledge was limited.
To my delight, when I turned on my machine, a project was already put into it, and all of the materials were fully prepared and ready to go. What do you think? Adorable, right?
The Cricut Explore Air 2: Explained
To sum up, the Cricut Explore Air 2 is a versatile tool that can be used to cut, draw on, and score a wide range of materials. The Cricut design area provides access to over three thousand premade projects, or you can build your own from scratch.
The pre-planned projects provide detailed instructions and lists of materials. Including a number of exclusives, Cricut Access Standard grants you limitless access to over 370 typefaces and over 30,000 images.
In addition, you’ll get a discount of 10% on anything you buy. That sounds like a lot of fun. The fact that it can be used wirelessly is one of its best advantages. This is crucial for me as a desktop user. As this system is hosted in the cloud, I can access it from any internet-connected device to create a design for a project.
